tommyv56 New Member United Kingdom 10 Posts	Posted 10/10/2020 3:34 pm Thanks Gincoin43. Is there any further information on the identity of this coin? If its 962 and not 862, who would be the ruler? I have no idea of coins of this type and am at the mercy of the guys with the knowledge. Thanks Tom Report this Post to the Staff
Gincoin43 Pillar of the Community United States 1543 Posts	Posted 10/10/2020 4:33 pm I couldn't find a match while I was looking yesterday, If it is 962AH it would be Ahmad Shah III I believe, If it is 862AH If would would be Ahmad Shah II. I leaning toward 962 because of the date placement. Report this Post to the Staff
Kushanshah Pillar of the Community United States 1554 Posts	Posted 10/11/2020 03:23 am Although it does have what may be the name Ahmad (I'm not fully convinced of it), this coin doesn't match any the types for the several Ahmads of Gujarat in Goron & Goenka. I agree the date seems to be x62 with 9 likely as the missing numeral. I suggest broadening the search. Edited by Kushanshah 10/11/2020 03:32 am Report this Post to the Staff
tommyv56 New Member United Kingdom 10 Posts	Posted 10/12/2020 05:42 am Hi, Thanks again for the information. The coin seems to be a bit of an anomaly. Is there anyone or anywhere it could definitely be identified? Thanks, Tom Report this Post to the Staff
